## What our records show for Austin, and for the Austin area.

Austin is covered by our Austin and Round Rock team, local inspectors and crews on 512-596-2944. The company is headquartered in Boerne; there is no Mammoth office address in Austin.

Counting only the jobs whose address names Austin itself, AccuLynx holds 265 job records and 56 finished jobs, and 9 of those were full roofs, the first in 2021 and the most recent in June 2026. Most of those roofs were insurance jobs, and among the finished jobs whose type was recorded, inspections come first. Across the whole Austin area, the six counties our records group with the city, the count is 44 finished roofs from 1,419 job records.

Austin is also where the bigger buildings are. Most of the commercial and property-management requests in our Austin-area records name Austin itself, and our [commercial roofing](https://mammothroofs.com/services/commercial-roofing/) page has an Austin section for facilities managers, property owners, boards and apartment communities. Fewer than half of Austin’s homes are lived in by their owners, so many roofs here belong to landlords, and the [property manager program](https://mammothroofs.com/partners/property-managers/) is built for anyone looking after several.

Our Austin job records lean north. The ZIP codes that carry the most are 78758 and 78728, which by the Census is about a third Wells Branch by land, then 78723, 78717 around Avery Ranch, and 78727. The busiest stretch on file ran from October 2023 through March 2024, the winter after the September 24, 2023 storm that put hail of up to three inches across north and central Austin.

## Your town. Your weather. Your roof.

Dated hail and wind reports logged near Austin by trained spotters for the National Weather Service. Storm history is a reason to inspect, never a diagnosis.

- August 27, 2026: Wind gust 60 mph (4 mi SSW of Lost Creek) [NWS Local Storm Reports](https://mesonet.agron.iastate.edu/lsr/#EWX,FWD/202608270000/202608272359)

_Since September 18, 2023, trained spotters reporting to the National Weather Service logged 5 days with hail of 1 inch or more and 13 days with damaging wind within 10 miles of Austin; the largest hail was 3 in on September 24, 2023. Storm history is a reason to inspect, never a diagnosis._

## A windier record than most, and two three-inch hail days.

Spotter reports to the National Weather Service within ten miles of central Austin.

Since September 18, 2016, spotters have logged 14 days with inch-or-larger hail within ten miles of central Austin and 34 days with damaging wind, one of the windier records on our site. Many of the strongest gusts in it were reported around the airport: 77 mph two miles southwest of Austin-Bergstrom on May 28, 2025, and 64 mph there again on May 10, 2026.

Two hail days stand out. On September 24, 2023, spotters reported stones of 2 to 2.5 inches within a mile or two of the city’s center point and three inches four miles north of downtown. On April 9, 2024, three-inch hail fell five miles northeast of West Lake Hills, less than four miles from the center of Austin. Earlier, on March 25, 2021, two-inch stones fell four miles northeast of downtown. In the ten years to September 2026, hail of two inches or more fell within 30 miles of the city on 13 days.

Wind lifts shingles and breaks their seal strips without leaving a hole, and hail bruises can take months to turn into leaks; insurers set time limits on claims for both. The free Roof Grade below records each slope with test squares and dated photos, [roof repair in Austin](https://mammothroofs.com/locations/austin/roof-repair/) starts from that report, and our [storm damage repair](https://mammothroofs.com/services/storm-damage-repair/) page covers the claim. On the Class 4 question: the UL 2218 test drops a 2-inch steel ball from 20 feet, the shingle adds a few hundred dollars to a typical roof, and many Texas insurers discount it.

## Older houses, more renters, and the City’s permit exemption.

The Census figures for the city, and the rule that decides whether your re-roof needs a permit.

Austin’s median home was built in 1993, by the Census Bureau’s figures for the city’s 466,428 housing units, and only 44% of those homes are lived in by their owners. A house from 1993 has outlived both the 15 to 25 years our cost guide gives a three-tab roof and the 25 to 30 it gives architectural shingle, so many Austin roofs are replacements already and some are due another.

The City of Austin exempts the most common re-roof from a building permit: asphalt shingles replaced with asphalt shingles, or any roof covering replaced without touching the roof structure. Two things change that. A home in the Wildland-Urban Interface needs a permit when half or more of the roof is replaced, and new decking beyond 128 square feet needs one anywhere in the city. We check which applies to your address, and when a permit is needed, we file it.

If you are weighing materials, [metal roofing in Austin](https://mammothroofs.com/locations/austin/metal-roofing/) covers standing seam and stone-coated steel, and many HOAs that refuse bare standing seam approve stone-coated steel in a shake or tile profile. Neighbors in [Round Rock](https://mammothroofs.com/locations/round-rock/) and [Cedar Park](https://mammothroofs.com/locations/cedar-park/) follow their own cities’ rules.

## What a roof replacement costs in Austin, from our published prices.

No new numbers: these are the ranges on our cost guide and repair page.

Our [cost guide](https://mammothroofs.com/guides/what-does-a-new-roof-cost/) takes its ranges from San Antonio-area jobs. For a plain 2,000 sq ft single-story house, its yardstick, an architectural shingle replacement runs roughly $8,000 to $13,000, and standing seam or stone-coated steel $24,000 to $38,000. By the square foot installed, shingle runs $3.50 to $5.50, metal $11 to $15 and clay or concrete tile $10 to $20, and the free Roof Grade gives the written number for an Austin roof.

A [roof replacement](https://mammothroofs.com/services/roof-replacement/) price is built from seven measurable things: the size in squares, the pitch, the complexity, the penetrations, the material, the decking and the ventilation. On older Austin houses the decking is the line to watch, because rotten or delaminated boards cannot be seen until the tear-off; an honest quote prices them per sheet with an allowance, so a surprise is a known number.

Repairs are priced too: a pipe boot or a few wind-damaged shingles typically $500 or less, chimney or wall flashing about $500 to $1,500. Most single-story homes are re-roofed in one day. Whatever the job, the free Roof Grade comes first and the quote lists every line.

## Roof replacement in Austin: when a new roof beats one more repair.

Hail usually raises the question here. Four facts answer it, and the free Roof Grade puts each one in writing.

Our [repair or replace guide](https://mammothroofs.com/guides/repair-or-replace/) starts with age: under about 12 years with one problem, repair it; past 18 to 20 years with damage on more than one slope, replace it, because each repair buys a year or two on a roof that is finishing anyway. After a storm like September 2023’s, what counts is how many slopes took hits, so the Roof Grade test-squares every one, starting in the attic, where soft decking shows first.

Waiting has a cost too: an old roof that then takes hail is a harder claim, because an adjuster can put some of the damage down to wear, and a Class 4 shingle earns a discount with many Texas insurers.

The new roof is architectural shingle, Class 4 if you choose, or standing seam or stone-coated steel from our [metal roofing in Austin](https://mammothroofs.com/locations/austin/metal-roofing/) page. Our [roof replacement](https://mammothroofs.com/services/roof-replacement/) page shows the system we install, and the [cost guide](https://mammothroofs.com/guides/what-does-a-new-roof-cost/) how a price is built. The same free visit gives you a written price for the repair and for the replacement.

## What an Austin roof inspection looks at.

The same 32 points in every Mammoth market, written down so you can check them.

- **The attic first**: Decking, ventilation and moisture, where most leaks show before they reach a ceiling. Most contractors never go up there.

- **Every slope, photographed**: 75–150 time-stamped photos of every slope, every penetration and the attic, with test squares for hail when a storm has been through.

- **Measured**: Squares, pitch, penetrations and decking condition: the numbers any honest quote is built on.

- **Graded in writing**: A Roof Grade from A to F with the score behind it and a plain-English verdict: leave it, repair it or replace it.

## Roofing questions in Austin.

### Who covers Austin for Mammoth, and from where?

Our Austin and Round Rock team: local inspectors and crews across Austin, Round Rock, Cedar Park, Georgetown, Lakeway and San Marcos, on 512-596-2944. There is no Mammoth office address in Austin. Same company, same written process and the same free Roof Grade as every Mammoth market.

### How often should a roof in Austin be inspected?

Once a year, and after any hail or high-wind event. Older roofs and heavily treed lots benefit from twice. Between visits, watch for curled or cracked shingles, granules piling up in the gutters and new stains on a ceiling.

### What does a roof replacement cost in Austin?

Our cost guide’s yardstick, taken from San Antonio-area jobs, is the 2,000 sq ft single-story home: about $8,000 to $13,000 in architectural shingle, $24,000 to $38,000 in metal. Pitch, complexity and decking move it from there, and the free Roof Grade gives you the written number for your Austin roof.

### Do you work on rental homes and apartment buildings in Austin?

Yes. Landlords and property managers use the same free Roof Grade and written quote, and our commercial page covers apartment communities and other commercial buildings in Austin, with a written scope and a written price. ([Commercial roofing, including Austin](/services/commercial-roofing/))

### Which parts of Austin do you work in most?

Our Austin records lean north: ZIP codes 78758 and 78728, around Wells Branch, carry the most, followed by 78723, 78717 near Avery Ranch and 78727. The Austin and Round Rock team covers the whole city.

### Can a roofer waive my deductible in Texas?

No. Texas law prohibits a contractor from offering to waive, rebate or absorb a property-insurance deductible. Your insurer determines the coverage under your policy. ([Texas Department of Insurance](https://www.tdi.texas.gov/consumer/storms/roofing-and-insurance-know-the-law.html))

### How often does hail hit Austin?

Since September 18, 2023, National Weather Service spotter reports show 5 days with hail of 1 inch or more within 10 miles of Austin and 20 such days within 30 miles. The largest hail logged nearby was 3 in on September 24, 2023. Over ten years (since September 18, 2016) the count is 14 days. Hail damage is time-limited for an insurance claim, so a dated inspection after a storm matters; the free Roof Grade gives you the photos and the written finding.

### How old are the homes in Austin?

The Census Bureau's American Community Survey (2019–2023) puts the median build year of homes in Austin at 1993, across 466,428 housing units, 44% of them owner-occupied. Mammoth's own guide treats 18 to 20 years as the point to plan a replacement for an asphalt shingle roof, so a home from that era is worth a written inspection.

### Do I need a permit to replace my roof in Austin?

In the City of Austin, the published rule is this: Replacing asphalt shingles with asphalt shingles, or any roof covering replacement that does not affect the roof structure, is exempt from a building permit, unless the home is in the Wildland-Urban Interface and half or more of the roof is replaced; new decking beyond 128 square feet needs a permit. (Austin's own page, checked September 18, 2026.) Mammoth's local team confirms the current requirement for your address before work starts and files the permit when one is needed.
